Playing old school RPGs hits different these days. Used to think the cackling menacing villains were too exaggerated but now that’s like my country’s government…

Just remembering the era when the tech world thought Sheryl Sangberg/Lean In was good… and if you were like idk I’m a wit and this book seems bad you were considered a freak

My fav shows are now Chinese microdramas where the plot is like a modern woman ends up in the Tang Dynasty or something and invents like guns and washing machines

I do a lot of boring social media graphics which is something you'd think AI might actually be useful for, but Canva's AI is hilariously bad

Empathy is carefully trying to determine if the bartender would be pressed before you order that Ramos Gin Fizz.

The cta survey

I’m reading Frankenstein and Dr. Frankenstein is so relatable! Hyperfocusing for months of something that turns out to be a grotesque disaster and then having a nervous breakdown? We’ve all been there, at least I have.

PFF!

I've been told by a reliable authority that I like "candy for sickos."

The stray kitten saga was a sober realization that a lot of the resources for low cost neuter/spay are still too hard to access. Like I’m not sure how someone without a lot of time is supposed to do this.

I found a stray kitten I’d like to find a home for and every time I post a pic people are like “it’s your cat now” smh

Someone I know was like “AI is great for bill splitting” and he sent ChatGPT our bill and told it to split it. ChatGPT returned an AI generated image of people splitting a bill…

This must be what it was like to live in the heyday of seances except instead of “oh the ghost in my house told me” it’s “ChatGPT told me”

I’m not sure what data I accidentally shared that caused this glorious instacart ad that features jackfruit, ???? pepsi, a tripe dog toy (I don’t have a dog), and ube queso ice cream (ok this sounds good and my Filipino friend said it’s legit)

Llm coding agents are like if you had a real junior developer except all the parts where its unable to meaningfully learn and there are no consequences for it making stuff up or deleting tests to make them pass

I’ll never eat tuna, chicken, or egg salad. They just seem like dishes designed to hide something suspicious.

Ever since my bf told me that Trader Joe’s employees are REQUIRED to compliment at least one of your purchases, I’ve lost all faith in humanity

Let me just never log in to LinkedIn again

The most important part of every project is spending at least 8 hours looking at fonts not because you need to but because you think they are neat

How can something so small be that heavy

It’s funny how the whole “every resume bullet point needs a number” thing has become so common even though we all know it forces made up numbers like “lmproved coding by 55%”

I haven’t seen too many people talk about this but the shift between 2020 DEI programs and support of BLM and marginalized communities at large to now seeing tech moguls blatantly support Trump at worst or say nothing at all at best has given me whiplash and put a bad taste in my mouth

i am Literally Begging somewhere to hire me please. i'm a generational talent for front-end web development, i have so much experience, i need someone to just take a shot on me instead of getting hit with automated rejections or a "you're too talented in things other than just engineering"

Does anyone know of a mailing list platform that allows you to have some subscribers get digests but paid members get posts as they come out?

This thread is incredible.

It’s wild how I can drink a sugary latte and gain 500% energy for 5 hours then gain SICK status and the latte has a month cooldown period

I always imagined Field of Dreams was about like rural economic development project to attract people with a baseball stadium but I learned recently it’s about ghosts which is hilarious

Study shows devs are slower with AI but think they are faster 😬 metr.org/blog/2025-07...

I had to call wildlife rehab about a bird and I deeply vibed with the rescuers attitude being like “wtf problem did these birds get themselves into this time? I hope it’s not actually serious because I absolutely don’t have time for this “

This meme appeared to me in a dream

Selling Sweet Potatoes at an absurd markup because they are roasted (Rune Factory 4)

It should be illegal for my friends to have children who are taller than I am.

How did this stop motion so accurately capture the experience of having your dreams crushed by a corporation

Giant trucks don’t belong on roads they belong here

It’s so cute when my cat sits on my lap when I’m on a meeting except when I notice she’s suspiciously wet 😭

My dad built an app with Gemini but if you click deploy it takes you to regular ass Google Cloud which is hilariously difficult to use.

Layoffs are an extremely effective way to bust unions. It happened to us at Glitch. Companies need to be held accountable to prove that layoffs are not motivated by union busting.

Union busting under the guise of pivoting to AI. Sadly the current NLRB DGAF

So jealous of other autistic people whose special interests are something useful like “meeting people” and not spiders or trains

This is the future of work: fewer employees so you have more work, and the "AI" helpers routinely fumble the most basic things

AI code tools like "I know you told me to use [markdown parser 1] but what if we installed 5 other markdown parsers because I forgot everything outside my context window"

Glitch.com dying is imho an instance of a startup that shot itself in the foot to crush its union and never recovered.

Not enough people talking about how the “we pivoted to AI and oppsie it didn’t go so well so we’re hiring new people” is an excellent excuse if you wanted to bust a union or any other kind of labor movement

I’m meeting more and more software devs who are just so tired of being laid off every other year or so

When you’re being mean to me this is who you’re being mean to (fantasy life)

My Sveltekit Ordinary Skincare routine companion tool is Dujoor's product of the day www.dujoor.com/project/the-...

If you haven’t heard of it, Fantasy Life is a kids game that’s so good it has a cult following among adults. The second one is out and it’s pretty amazing. If you do have kids there is a mode where even pretty young kids can participate.
